Here, we have created a how-to-enter guide to make the process even easier for you.

1. Get started

The easiest way to get started is to register for the EMMAs online. The registration form is where you can select which categories you’d like to enter. We only accept a limited number of entries per category so prompt registration is always recommended! Remember, you can enter more than one category.

2. Prepare for your entry

Before you start your entry, have a think about what the judges are looking for.

Along with an overall review of the submission as a whole, each entry is judged using a fairly complex system of scoring against the following criteria, so always keep these points in mind:

Innovation

Strategy

Results

Impact of the work

3. Analyze the question carefully

Before you begin writing, make sure that you read the questions carefully. It might help to underline the key points later. Review your answers to ensure that you are addressing those specific issues.

TOP TIP: When putting your entry together, it’s a good idea to follow the flow of the entry criteria. It will also make it easier for the judges to follow.

4. Stick to the rules

Criteria for entries:

Make a clear statement indicating why the individual, team or company should win the EMMA for the category, making clear the organisational benefits driven by the team/individual concerned.

Give examples of how the team/individual has impacted the overall business priorities of their employers or clients, any benefits to the assignees and any obstacles overcome, providing clear demonstrable results.

Show clear evidence of any innovations, effective deployment of resources or improvement in cost management.

Explain the longer term impact, lessons learned and how any improved methods have been introduced to other parts of the business or other clients.

Include details of up to 3 pieces of supporting material (see below for guidelines of what to provide).

Guidelines:

All submissions must be made online and take the format requested

In all cases, the judges are looking for concise submissions and your entry should cover as many of the listed criteria as possible

Please ensure your entry is relevant to the region you are entering – if your submission relates to work carried out globally, you must highlight projects in that particular region

5. Submit your entry

Entries can be edited online right up until the entry deadline (see below), when you will be required to submit your entry. You can also supply 3 supporting documents (as attachments) per category, to be provided in low-resolution format.
